I have a 5 speed manual if thats wat you mean, but i doubt it since cobras only come in manual.
Soft tires? as in stock? yes.

Stock tires are not soft but rock hard. I think he meant drag radials or ET streets, a really soft compound that when heated in a long burnout can hook like slicks. So it really matters if you are talking street launches or strip and what your tires are and what your track is like. I have spoken to folks down south that can hook street tires at their tracks but up North its a challenge to hook everything at some tracks.
